I was looking for some info on this procedure. I know with horses, cattle, etc. there is a certain amount of time to hold the irons on and different chemicals that can be used. If there is someone out there with some experience in this matter could you shoot me a pm with some info? Thanks alot!

There's alot of different ways to do it but the time you have to apply the brand is shortest with the liquid nitrogen, you can get it at a welding shop.

be careful on the time. i did 10 sec with liquid nitrogen & a bronze brand on the rear hip. most of the hair didnt grow back in the center but is white on the edges.
